Rhapsody Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 He's back fron the vet Ortho surgeon, has had his left knee remodelled, plated and pinned. I've made him a recovery room of our front porch. He has a huge red bandage from paw to hip and the biggest Buster collar I have ever seen So far refusing to eat or drink Apparently his other knee is in pretty bad shape too, which means we wont be able to get him insured against that one going. Vet said it is a breed fault so we didnt do anything wrong to cause it, which is a slight comfort. I'm going to stay in with him today (so expect me online alot) Nurse Rhapsody x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Poor boy, once all the anaesthetic wears off maybe he'll feel a bit better then. Give him a tummy rub from me. Hope he's better soon. Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamebird Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 How's Zeus feeling today? Has he perked up a bit? They can be very confused after an anaesthetic but hopefully it will be wearing off and he will soon be back to normal, albeit with a huge red bandage and a lamp shade on his head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
